Corey, you are absolutely a philocalist. You see beauty everywhere. I remember a photo you took years ago of dry, cracked earth and it was beautiful, but few would have recognized that beauty. It is a true gift to notice beauty. It makes life so much richer. Thank you for the beauty you scatter here in your blog. Love you, ~J.

This certainly describes you, dear Corey ❤️
Beauty is all around us, if we have eyes to see it.
I'm trying to develop this view, the ability to find beauty in the everyday ... especially in the gray winter months here in Zurich. I just have to look for it!

Well, I think I could well be a Philocalist with a little more practice...I do seem to lean towards the appreciation of everyday things that are in my surroundings....but I think we all have such busy wee lives we ought to work towards Philocalisting more often! You definitely have the knack for finding beauty in your daily life....long may it continue...go well...Jennie, NZ
